When I serve this salad, friends give me a quizzical look as if to say, “Is that Italian?” And the answer is yes, especially since I first enjoyed it in Valeggio. The combination of radishes, raspberries, and zucchini is delightful and colorful, and a real palate cleanser after fish or a spicy dinner. Use a salad spinner or towel to thoroughly dry the lettuce leaves.

2 cups washed and dried romaine lettuce leaves, torn into pieces
6 large radishes, washed and thinly sliced
